Go behind the scenes of the “3 Tears” music video by Mergui, and step inside a collaborative, high-trust film set where story, craft, and creativity came together.
This behind-the-scenes video follows the process from camera prep and pre-light to long shooting days and real-time creative problem-solving, offering a genuine look at what it takes to translate emotion into images. Bringing that emotional arc to the screen took an incredible team led by Lucas Colombo (Director), supported by a dream team of filmmakers and creative partners. youtube.com/playlist?list=PLyvDAc1oLWXpnmZnGOXEJaqn0JuPXKrKT&si=eLtsBdP_HCljku_Y

This shoot was a reminder of what’s possible when everyone shows up curious, prepared, and excited to collaborate. From dialing in lighting and composition to learning new film terminology on the fly, the energy on set was welcoming, positive, and deeply creative.
